Resistance of the CRISPR-Cas13a Gene-Editing System to Potato Spindle Tuber Viroid Infection in Tomato and Nicotiana benthamiana.

Gene-editing technology, specifically the CRISPR-Cas13a system, has shown promise in breeding plants resistant to RNA viruses. This system targets RNA and, theoretically, can also combat RNA-based viroids. To test this, the CRISPR-Cas13a system was introduced into tomato plants via transient expression and into Nicotiana benthamiana through transgenic methods, using CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) targeting the conserved regions of both sense and antisense genomes of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd). In tomato plants, the expression of CRISPR-Cas13a and crRNAs substantially reduced PSTVd accumulation and alleviated disease symptoms. In transgenic N. benthamiana plants, the PSTVd levels were lower as compared to wild-type plants. Several effective crRNAs targeting the PSTVd genomic RNA were also identified. These results demonstrate that the CRISPR-Cas13a system can effectively target and combat viroid RNAs, despite their compact structures.

Unraveling clonal CD8 T cell expansion and identification of essential factors in γ-herpesvirus-induced lymphomagenesis.

Alcelaphine gammaherpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) asymptomatically persists in its natural host, the wildebeest. However, cross-species transmission to cattle results in the induction of an acute and lethal peripheral T cell lymphoma-like disease (PTCL), named malignant catarrhal fever (MCF). Our previous findings demonstrated an essential role for viral genome maintenance in infected CD8+ T lymphocytes but the exact mechanism(s) leading to lymphoproliferation and MCF remained unknown. To decipher how AlHV-1 dysregulates T lymphocytes, we first examined the global phenotypic changes in circulating CD8+ T cells after experimental infection of calves. T cell receptor repertoire together with transcriptomics and epigenomics analyses demonstrated an oligoclonal expansion of infected CD8+ T cells displaying effector and exhaustion gene signatures, including GZMA, GNLY, PD-1, and TOX2 expression. Then, among viral genes expressed in infected CD8+ T cells, we uncovered A10 that encodes a transmembrane signaling protein displaying multiple tyrosine residues, with predicted ITAM and SH3 motifs. Impaired A10 expression did not affect AlHV-1 replication in vitro but rendered AlHV-1 unable to induce MCF. Furthermore, A10 was phosphorylated in T lymphocytes in vitro and affected T cell signaling. Finally, while AlHV-1 mutants expressing mutated forms of A10 devoid of ITAM or SH3 motifs (or both) were able to induce MCF, a recombinant virus expressing a mutated form of A10 unable to phosphorylate its tyrosine residues resulted in the lack of MCF and protected against a wild-type virus challenge. Thus, we could characterize the nature of this γ-herpesvirus-induced PTCL-like disease and identify an essential mechanism explaining its development.

Viromics reveals two novel viruses of the family Closteroviridae in Codiaeum variegatum plant with leaf variegation symptoms.

Codiaeum variegatum is a valuable ornamental plant with distinct bright yellowing and golden spots on dark green leaves, which resemble virus symptoms. To investigate the factors, especially viral agents, associated with the variegated leaf color of Codiaeum variegatum, we performed virome profiling of a single C. variegatum 'Gold Dust' leaf sample collected from Hainan, China using ribosomal RNA-depleted total RNA sequencing on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. Two novel viruses, with two variants each, belonging to the family Closteroviridae were detected and characterized: Croton golden spot-associated virus C variants 1 and 2 (CGSaVC-v1, and CGSaVC-v2) of the genus Crinivirus and Croton golden spot-associated virus A variants 1 and 2 (CGSaVA-v1 and CGSaVA-v2) of the genus Ampelovirus. Transmission electron microscopy showed long, flexuous, filamentous virus particles approximately 15 nm in diameter and 760-770 nm in length. Molecular screening of ninety-seven variegated individual plant leaves showed a high prevalence of CGSaVA-v1 (90.7%), CGSaVA-v2 (75.3 %), CGSaVC-v1 (70.1%), and CGSaVC-v2 (47.4%), while asymptomatic leaves near the meristem tip were mostly free of the target viruses. To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate the significant association between closterovirids and the golden spots. The findings provide novel insights into the genetic diversity of the family Closteroviridae and inform future germplasm conservation and new cultivar development of Codiaeum Variegatum.

Prediction of early neurologic deterioration in patients with perforating artery territory infarction using machine learning: a retrospective study.

Background: Early neurological deterioration (END) is a frequent complication in patients with perforating artery territory infarction (PAI), leading to poorer outcomes. Therefore, we aimed to apply machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict the occurrence of END in PAI and investigate related risk factors. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed a cohort of PAI patients, excluding those with severe stenosis of the parent artery. We included demographic characteristics, clinical features, laboratory data, and imaging variables. Recursive feature elimination with cross-validation (RFECV) was performed to identify critical features. Seven ML algorithms, namely logistic regression, random forest, adaptive boosting, gradient boosting decision tree, histogram-based gradient boosting, extreme gradient boosting, and category boosting, were developed to predict END in PAI patients using these critical features. We compared the accuracy of these models in predicting outcomes. Additionally, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) values were introduced to interpret the optimal model and assess the significance of input features. Results: The study enrolled 1,020 PAI patients with a mean age of 60.46 (range 49.11-71.81) years. Of these, 30.39% were women, and 129 (12.65%) experienced END. RFECV selected 13 critical features, including blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total cholesterol (TC), low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B (apoB), atrial fibrillation, loading dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT), argatroban, the basal ganglia, the thalamus, the posterior choroidal arteries, maximal axial infarct diameter (measured at < 15 mm), and stroke subtype. The gradient-boosting decision tree had the highest area under the curve (0.914) among the seven ML algorithms. The SHAP analysis identified apoB as the most significant variable for END. Conclusion: Our results suggest that ML algorithms, especially the gradient-boosting decision tree, are effective in predicting the occurrence of END in PAI patients.

Intracranial aneurysm circulating exosome-derived LncRNA ATP1A1-AS1 promotes smooth muscle cells phenotype switching and apoptosis.

Exosomal long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of cerebrovascular diseases. However, the expression profiles and functional significance of exosomal LncRNAs in intracranial aneurysms (IAs) remain poorly understood. Through high-throughput sequencing, we identified 1303 differentially expressed LncRNAs in the plasma exosomes of patients with IAs and healthy controls. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) verification confirmed the differential expression of LncRNAs, the majority of which aligned with the sequencing results. ATP1A1-AS1 showed the most significant upregulation in the disease group. Importantly, subsequent in vitro experiments validated that ATP1A1-AS1 overexpression induced a phenotype switching in vascular smooth muscle cells, along with promoting apoptosis and upregulating MMP-9 expression, potentially contributing to IAs formation. Furthermore, expanded-sample validation affirmed the high diagnostic value of ATP1A1-AS1. These findings suggest that ATP1A1-AS1 is a potential therapeutic target for inhibiting IAs progression and serves as a valuable clinical diagnostic marker.

Molecular and Biological Characteristics of a Peach Latent Mosaic Viroid PC Isolate in Peach from China: Base Mutations in Hairpin Stems and Implications for Symptomatology.

Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) infects peach trees in China and induces a conspicuous albino phenotype (peach calico, PC) that is closely associated with variants containing a 12-to-14 nucleotide hairpin insertion capped by a U-rich loop. Initially, PC disease distribution was limited to parts of Italy, and it was first detected in the field in China in 2019. To explore the molecular and biological characteristics of PLMVd PC isolates in peach in China, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of disease phenotype development and investigated the data-associated pathogenicity and in vivo dynamics of the Chinese isolate PC-A2 using slash-inoculation into GF-305 peach seedlings. Inoculated seedlings displayed PC symptoms much earlier following topping treatment, and PLMVd infectivity was further assessed using bioassay and semiquantitative RT-PCR experiments. Evolutionary analysis showed that the PC isolate and its progeny variants clustered into a single phylogroup distinct from reference PC-C40 isolates from Italy and PC-K1 and PC-K2 from South Korea. Some PC-A2 progeny variants from green leaves of PC-expressing seedlings showed unbalanced point mutations in hairpin stems compared with the PC-C40 reference sequence and constituted a new stem insertion type. The results reveal associations between the recessive phenotypes of peach albino symptoms and base variation in hairpin stem insertions relative to the PC-C40/chloroplastic heat shock protein 90 reference sequence.

Microfungi Associated with Peach Branch Diseases in China.

Peach (Prunus persica L.) is one of the most important and oldest stone fruits grown in China. Even though P. persica is one of the most commonly grown stone fruits in China, little is known about the biodiversity of microfungi associated with peach branch diseases. In the present study, samples were collected from a wide range of peach growing areas in China, and fungal pathogens associated with peach branch diseases were isolated. In total, 85 isolates were obtained and further classified into nine genera and 10 species. Most of the isolates belonged to Botryosphaeriaceae (46), including Botryosphaeria, Diplodia, Neofusicoccum, Phaeobotryon, and Lasiodiplodia species; Ascochyta, Didymella, and Nothophoma species representing Didymellaceae were also identified. Herein, we introduce Ascochyta prunus and Lasiodiplodia pruni as novel species. In addition, we report the first records of Nothophoma pruni, Neofusicoccum occulatum, and Phaeobotryon rhois on peach worldwide, and Didymella glomerata, Nothophoma quercina, and Phaeoacremonium scolyti are the first records from China. This research is the first comprehensive investigation to explore the microfungi associated with peach branch disease in China. Future studies are necessary to understand the pathogenicity and disease epidemiology of these identified species.

Knockout of SlDCL2b attenuates the resistance of tomato to potato spindle tuber viroid infection.

RNA interference, or RNA silencing, is an important defence mechanism against viroid infection in plants. Plants encode multiple DICER-LIKE (DCL) proteins that are key components of the RNA silencing pathway. However, the roles of different DCLs in defence responses against viroid infection remain unclear. Here, we determined the function of tomato DCL2b (SlDCL2b) in defence responses against potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) infection using SlDCL2b loss-of-function tomato mutant plants. Compared with wild-type plants, mutant plants were more susceptible to PSTVd infection, developing more severe symptoms earlier and accumulating higher levels of PSTVd RNAs. Moreover, we verified the feedback mechanism for the regulation of SlDCL2b expression by miR6026. Functional blocking of tomato miR6026, by expressing its target mimics, can enhance resistance to PSTVd infection in tomato plants. These findings deepen the current understanding of RNAi-based resistance against viroid infection and provide a potentially new strategy for viroid control.

Vitamin K: Infection, Inflammation, and Auto-Immunity.

Vitamin K (VK) comprises a group of substances with chlorophyll quinone bioactivity and exists in nature in the form of VK1 and VK2. As its initial recognition originated from the ability to promote blood coagulation, it is known as the coagulation vitamin. However, based on extensive research, VK has shown potential for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. Studies demonstrating the beneficial effects of VK on immunity, antioxidant capacity, intestinal microbiota regulation, epithelial development, and bone protection have drawn growing interest in recent years. This review article focuses on the mechanism of action of VK and its potential preventive and therapeutic effects on infections (eg, asthma, COVID-19), inflammation (eg, in type 2 diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, cancer, aging, atherosclerosis) and autoimmune disorders (eg, inflammatory bowel disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis). In addition, VK-dependent proteins (VKDPs) are another crucial mechanism by which VK exerts anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. This review explores the potential role of VK in preventing aging, combating neurological abnormalities, and treating diseases such as cancer and diabetes. Although current research appoints VK as a therapeutic tool for practical clinical applications in infections, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases, future research is necessary to elucidate the mechanism of action in more detail and overcome current limitations.

Surfeit Locus Protein 4 as a Novel Target for Therapeutic Intervention in Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

Surfeit locus protein 4 (SURF4) functions as a cargo receptor that is capable of transporting newly formed proteins from the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum into vesicles and Golgi bodies. However, the role of SURF4 in the central nervous system remains unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of SURF4 and its underlying mechanisms in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats, and whether it can be used effectively for novel therapeutic intervention. We also examined whether transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) can exert a neuroprotective effect via SURF4-dependent signalling. Following cerebral I/R injury in rats, a significant increase was observed in the expression of SURF4. In both I/R injury and oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) insult, suppressing the expression of SURF4 demonstrated a neuroprotective effect, while overexpression of SURF4 resulted in increased neuronal death. We further showed that the levels of nerve growth factor precursor (proNGF), p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR), sortilin, and PTEN were increased following cerebral I/R injury, and that SURF4 acted through the PTEN/proNGF signal pathway to regulate neuronal viability. We demonstrated that tDCS treatment reduced SURF4 expression and decreased the infarct volume after cerebral I/R injury. Together, this study indicates that SURF4 plays a critical role in ischemic neuronal injury and may serve as a molecular target for the development of therapeutic strategies in acute ischemic stroke.

Four pairs of neolignan enantiomers with distinctive isochroman moiety from the fruits of Crataegus pinnatifida and their protective activities against H2O2-induced SH-SY5Y cells.

Four pairs of neolignan enantiomers (±)-1- (±)-4 with a distinctive isochroman moiety, including seven undescribed compounds, were isolated and identified from the fruits of Crataegus pinnatifida. Structural characterization of these compounds was established through comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, as well as quantum chemical calculations of ECD and NMR data. The preliminary bioassay displayed that compounds (+)-2 and (±)-3 exerted protective activities against H2O2-induced human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells compared with the positive control. These bioactive compounds could be potential candidates for further pharmaceutical applications.

Plant virology in the 21st century in China: Recent advances and future directions.

Plant viruses are a group of intracellular pathogens that persistently threaten global food security. Significant advances in plant virology have been achieved by Chinese scientists over the last 20 years, including basic research and technologies for preventing and controlling plant viral diseases. Here, we review these milestones and advances, including the identification of new crop-infecting viruses, dissection of pathogenic mechanisms of multiple viruses, examination of multilayered interactions among viruses, their host plants, and virus-transmitting arthropod vectors, and in-depth interrogation of plant-encoded resistance and susceptibility determinants. Notably, various plant virus-based vectors have also been successfully developed for gene function studies and target gene expression in plants. We also recommend future plant virology studies in China.

Upregulation of mitochondrial PGK1 by ROS-TBC1D15 pathway promotes neuronal death after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation injury.

Phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1) is extensively located in the cytosol and mitochondria. The role of PGK1 in ischemic neuronal injury remains elusive. In the in vitro model of oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R), we showed that PGK1 expression was increased in cortical neurons. Knockdown of PGK1 led to a reduction of OGD/R-induced neuronal death. The expression of cytosolic PGK1 was reduced, but the levels of mitochondrial PGK1 were increased in OGD/R-insulted neurons. Inhibiting the activity of mitochondrial PGK1 alleviated the neuronal injury after OGD/R insult. We further showed that the protein levels of TBC domain family member 15 (TBC1D15) were decreased in OGD/R-insulted neurons. Knockdown of TBC1D15 led to increased levels of mitochondrial PGK1 after OGD/R insult in cortical neurons. Moreover, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulted in a reduction of TBC1D15 in OGD/R-insulted neurons. These results suggest that the upregulation of mitochondrial PGK1 by ROS-TBC1D15 signaling pathway promotes neuronal death after OGD/R injury. Mitochondrial PGK1 may act as a regulator of neuronal survival and interventions in the PGK1-dependent pathway may be a potential therapeutic strategy.

First Report of Angiopsora paspalicola Causing Leaf Rust on Paspalum conjugatum in Malaysia.

Paspalum conjugatum (family Poaceae), locally known as Buffalo grass, is a perennial weed that can be found in rice field, residential lawn, and sod farm in Malaysia (Uddin et al. 2010; Hakim et al. 2013). In September 2022, Buffalo grass with rust symptoms and signs were collected from the lawn located in Universiti Malaysia Sabah in the province of Sabah (6°01'55.6"N, 116°07'15.7"E). The incidence was 90%. Yellow uredinia were observed primarily on the abaxial surface of the leaves. As the disease progressed, leaves were covered with coalescing pustules. Microscopic examination of pustules revealed the presence of urediniospores. Urediniospores were ellipsoid to obovoid in shape, contents in yellow, 16.4-28.8 x 14.0-22.4 µm and echinulate, with a prominent tonsure on most of the spores. A fine brush was used to collect yellow urediniospores, and genomic DNA was extracted based on Khoo et al. (2022a). The primers Rust28SF/LR5 (Vilgalys and Hester 1990; Aime et al. 2018) and CO3_F1/CO3_R1 (Vialle et al. 2009) were used to amplify partial 28S ribosomal RNA (28S) and cytochrome c oxidase III (COX3) gene fragments following the protocols of Khoo et al. (2022b). The sequences were deposited in GenBank under accession numbers OQ186624- OQ186626 (985/985 bp) (28S) and OQ200381-OQ200383 (556/556 bp) (COX3). They were 100% similar to Angiopsora paspalicola 28S (MW049243) and COX3 (MW036496) sequences. Phylogenetic analysis using maximum likelihood based on the combined 28S and COX3 sequences indicated that the isolate formed a supported clade to A. paspalicola. Koch's postulates were performed with spray inoculations of urediniospores suspended in water (106 spores/ml) on leaves of three healthy Buffalo grass leaves, while water was sprayed on three additional Buffalo grass leaves which served as control. The inoculated Buffalo grass were placed in the greenhouse. Symptoms and signs similar to those of the field collection occurred after 12 days post inoculation. No symptoms occurred on controls. To our knowledge, this is the first report of A. paspalicola causing leaf rust on P. conjugatum in Malaysia. Our findings expand the geographic range of A. paspalicola in Malaysia. Albeit P. conjugatum is a host of the pathogen, but the host range of the pathogen especially in Poaceae economic crops need to be studied. Weed management could be an effective way to eliminate inoculum sources of A. paspalicola.

The ABI5-dependent down-regulation of mitochondrial ATP synthase OSCP subunit facilitates apple necrotic mosaic virus infection.

Apple necrotic mosaic virus (ApNMV) is associated with apple mosaic disease in China. However, the mechanisms of ApNMV infection, as well as host defence against the virus, are still poorly understood. Mitochondrial ATP synthase plays a fundamental role in the regulation of plant growth and development. However, mitochondrial ATP synthase function in response to virus infection remains to be defined. In the present study, a yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) screening revealed that the apple mitochondrial ATP synthase oligomycin sensitivity-conferring protein (OSCP) subunit (MdATPO) interacts with ApNMV coat protein (CP). It was further verified that overexpression of MdATPO in Nicotiana benthamiana inhibited viral accumulation. In contrast, silencing of NbATPO facilitated viral accumulation, indicating that ATPO plays a defensive role during ApNMV infection. Further investigation demonstrated that ApNMV infection accelerated abscisic acid (ABA) accumulation, and ABA negatively regulated ATPO transcription, which was related to the ability of ABA insensitive 5 (ABI5) to bind to the ABA-responsive elements (ABREs) of the ATPO promoter. Taken together, our results indicated that transcription factor ABI5 negatively regulated ATPO transcription by directly binding to its promoter, leading to the susceptibility of apple and N. benthamiana to ApNMV infection. The current study facilitates a comprehensive understanding of the intricate responses of the host to ApNMV infection.

Knowledge Mapping of Intracranial Aneurysm Clipping: A Bibliometric and Visualized Study (2001-2021).

BACKGROUND: Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are common cerebrovascular diseases with high rates of mortality and disability. With the development of endovascular treatment technologies, the treatment of IAs has gradually turned to endovascular methods. However, because of the complex disease characteristics and technical challenges of IA treatment, surgical clipping still plays an important role. However, no summary has been performed of the research status and future trends in IA clipping. METHODS: Publications related to IA clipping from 2001 to 2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We conducted a bibliometric analysis and visualization study with the help of VOSviewer software and R program. RESULTS: We included 4104 articles from 90 countries. The volume of publications on IA clipping, in general, has increased. The United States, Japan, and China were the countries with the most contributions. The University of California, San Francisco, Mayo Clinic, and the Barrow Neurological Institute are the main research institutions. World Neurosurgery and the Journal of Neurosurgery were the most popular journal and most co-cited journal, respectively. These publications came from 12,506 authors, of whom Lawton, Spetzler, and Hernesniemi had reported the most studies. The reports from the past 21 years on IA clipping can generally be divided into 5 parts: (1) characteristics and technical difficulties of IA clipping; (2) perioperative management and imaging evaluation of IA clipping; (3) risk factors for subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by rupture after IA clipping; (4) outcomes, prognosis, and related clinical trials of IA clipping; and (5) endovascular management for IA clipping. "Occlusion," "experience," "internal carotid artery," "intracranial aneurysms," "management," and "subarachnoid hemorrhage" were the major keywords for future research hotspots. CONCLUSIONS: The results from our bibliometric study have clarified the global research status of IA clipping between 2001 and 2021. The United States contributed the most publications and citations, and World Neurosurgery and Journal of Neurosurgery can be considered landmark journals in this field. Studies regarding occlusion, experience, management, and subarachnoid hemorrhage will be the research hotspots related to IA clipping in the future.

Small Brown Planthopper Nymph Infestation Regulates Plant Defenses by Affecting Secondary Metabolite Biosynthesis in Rice.

The small brown planthopper (SBPH, Laodelphax striatellus) is one of the most destructive insect pests in rice (Oryza sativa), which is the world's major grain crop. The dynamic changes in the rice transcriptome and metabolome in response to planthopper female adult feeding and oviposition have been reported. However, the effects of nymph feeding remain unclear. In this study, we found that pre-infestation with SBPH nymphs increased the susceptibility of rice plants to SBPH infestation. We used a combination of broadly targeted metabolomic and transcriptomic studies to investigate the rice metabolites altered by SBPH feeding. We observed that SBPH feeding induced significant changes in 92 metabolites, including 56 defense-related secondary metabolites (34 flavonoids, 17 alkaloids, and 5 phenolic acids). Notably, there were more downregulated metabolites than upregulated metabolites. Additionally, nymph feeding significantly increased the accumulation of seven phenolamines and three phenolic acids but decreased the levels of most flavonoids. In SBPH-infested groups, 29 differentially accumulated flavonoids were downregulated, and this effect was more pronounced with infestation time. The findings of this study indicate that SBPH nymph feeding suppresses flavonoid biosynthesis in rice, resulting in increased susceptibility to SBPH infestation.

Relationship between the deep features of the full-scan pathological map of mucinous gastric carcinoma and related genes based on deep learning.

Background: Long-term differential expression of disease-associated genes is a crucial driver of pathological changes in mucinous gastric carcinoma. Therefore, there should be a correlation between depth features extracted from pathology-based full-scan images using deep learning and disease-associated gene expression. This study tried to provides preliminary evidence that long-term differentially expressed (disease-associated) genes lead to subtle changes in disease pathology by exploring their correlation, and offer a new ideas for precise analysis of pathomics and combined analysis of pathomics and genomics. Methods: Full pathological scans, gene sequencing data, and clinical data of patients with mucinous gastric carcinoma were downloaded from TCGA data. The VGG-16 network architecture was used to construct a binary classification model to explore the potential of VGG-16 applications and extract the deep features of the pathology-based full-scan map. Differential gene expression analysis was performed and a protein-protein interaction network was constructed to screen disease-related core genes. Differential, Lasso regression, and extensive correlation analyses were used to screen for valuable deep features. Finally, a correlation analysis was used to determine whether there was a correlation between valuable deep features and disease-related core genes. Result: The accuracy of the binary classification model was 0.775 ± 0.129. A total of 24 disease-related core genes were screened, including ASPM, AURKA, AURKB, BUB1, BUB1B, CCNA2, CCNB1, CCNB2, CDCA8, CDK1, CENPF, DLGAP5, KIF11, KIF20A, KIF2C, KIF4A, MELK, PBK, RRM2, TOP2A, TPX2, TTK, UBE2C, and ZWINT. In addition, differential, Lasso regression, and extensive correlation analyses were used to screen eight valuable deep features, including features 51, 106, 109, 118, 257, 282, 326, and 487. Finally, the results of the correlation analysis suggested that valuable deep features were either positively or negatively correlated with core gene expression. Conclusion: The preliminary results of this study support our hypotheses. Deep learning may be an important bridge for the joint analysis of pathomics and genomics and provides preliminary evidence for long-term abnormal expression of genes leading to subtle changes in pathology.
